Bhubaneswar: With reports of casualty and damage to private properties due to continuous rain for the last two days coming from different parts of Odisha, the state government on Tuesday directed district collectors to file the damages assessment reports by September 22.

Stating that assessment of damage to the properties in different sectors such as houses, agriculture (crop loss of 33% & above), sand cast of agriculture land, loss of cattle and enumeration of beneficiaries have to be taken up on priority, Jena said the assessment reports would enable payment of the assistance as per norms of SDRF to the affected persons expeditiously to enable them to repair the damages and restore livelihood.
